It is unknown when the Robot Devil was built, but he has probably been around since at least [[Fairness in Hell Act of 2275|2275]]. In [[3000]], he took [[Bender]] to the [[Robot Hell]], but [[Leela]] and [[Fry]] came to save him, Leela hit the Robot Devil's head with his gold violin and they escaped {{et|1ACV09}}. He was later imprisoned in [[3001]] {{et|3ACV03}} and attended the [[Big Robot Party]] {{et|4ACV08}}. In [[3004]], he made a deal with Fry, saying he would give him the hands of a robot chosen by the [[Wheel of Robots]], ironically he had to be the one that give his hands. He attempted to recover his hands by tricking Leela to force her to marry him in exchange of ears, Fry who didn't want Leela to marry the robot devil, allowed the devil to change their hands back {{et|4ACV18}}. In [[3007]], he played with his [[Robot Demons|demons]] at the [[Turanga-Fillmore wedding]] ([[Bender's Big Score|BBS]]). In [[3008]], he gave the [[Army of the Damned]] to Bender in exchange of his [[Bender's first born son|first son]] ([[The Beast with a Billion Backs|TBWABB]]). He attended the Violet Dwarf Star Implosion ([[Into the Wild Green Yonder|ITWGY]]).

It is unknown when or why the Robot Devil was built. He was likely built before or around [[2275]], when the [[Fairness in Hell Act of 2275|Fairness in Hell Act]] was signed into law. He is a member of the Church of [[Robotology]], punishing those who sin against the teachings of the Church for eternity {{et|1ACV09}}. At some point in his life he came across [[Calculon]]. He made a deal giving Calculon acting ability, and collected on that deal in [[3004]] when he took his ears {{et|4ACV18}}. He has a holiday home in [[Hell's Kitchen]] in [[New New York]] that he bought from [[Kathie Lee Gifford's head]] some time ago. He was also once a member of [[Mrs. Mellonger]]'s [[holophonor]] class.

When [[Bender Bending Rodríguez|Bender]] sinned against the Church, the Robot Devil collected him and prepared a series of agonizing, ironic punishments (1ACV09). However, [[Philip J. Fry|Fry]] and [[Turanga Leela|Leela]] found Bender in [[Robot Hell]] and challenged the Robot Devil to a fiddle contest after he informed them of the Fairness in Hell Act. They beat him over the head with his [[gold violin]] and escaped, much to his chagrin. By [[Xmas]] Eve [[3002]], he had been arrested and spent time in a [[New New York]] prison {{et|3ACV02}}. However, he had been released in time for the [[Big Robot Party]], where he was to be destroyed along with every other Robot on [[Earth]] {{et|4ACV08}}.

After he and the other Robots moved the Earth by collectively venting their exhaust, he returned to Robot Hell and continued to practice his music with his [[Robot Demons]] until Fry and Bender showed up again. Fry wanted new hands so he could play the holophonor without practicing, and the Robot Devil made a deal to give him the hands of any robot on the [[Wheel of Robots]] (4ACV18). However, the Wheel landed on him and he agreed to give Fry his hands. However, he came to regret that decision and set in motion a convoluted plan to regain his hands, culminating in an elaborate [[I Want My Hands Back|elaborate, impromptu song]] during [[Leela: Orphan of the Stars| Fry's opera]]. After threatening to marry Leela, Fry agreed to give his hands back and the Robot Devil returned to Hell to play a poker game with [[Richard Nixon's head|President Nixon]].

He loaned himself and his band out for [[Turanga-Fillmore wedding|Leela's weeding]] to [[Lars Fillmore]] {{et|5ACV03}}. After [[Universe Γ|the universe]] started dating [[Yivo]], Bender approached the Robot Devil about gaining a [[Army of the Damned|damned army]] to take over the world. He agreed on the condition that Bender surrender his [[Bender's first born son|first born son]], but to his surprise Bender eagerly agreed. Later, the Robot Devil attended the [[violet dwarf star implosion]] but instead witnessed the birth of the [[Last Encyclopod]] along with everyone in attendance {{et|5ACV16}}. He later attended Bender's [[100th Delivery Party]] {{et|6ACV12}}

+

+

After Bender was killed by [[Lynn]], the Robot Devil revealed to him that he was a ghost {{et|6ACV19}}. He made yet another deal with Bender, saying that if Bender killed Fry he would restore him to his old body (in retaliation for Fry taking his hands). However, Bender eventually decided that Fry's life was worth spending eternity in Hell and managed to destroy the Robot Devil's body, for which he had multiple replacements. He did not get to keep Bender, however, since Bender was saved by [[Robot God]].
